尽管你可能已经在想晚上吃什么，但可能不会注意到你吃的所有食物对你的健康有什么影响。我们总是高喊每天吃什么和不吃什么的口号。远离药物可能对你的结肠更好，更倾向于有规律地吃天然便宜的食物。

　　Probiotics

　　益生菌

　　It sounds a little gross, but your entire colon is colonized with good bacteria and yeast.

　　Dark Leafy Vegetables

　　深色叶菜

　　The minute I say dark, leafy vegetable, most people envision a cluster of spinach. There are many other variations of dark leafies that include collard greens, kale, and even romaine.

　　当我说到深色叶菜，大部分人会想到菠菜。但还有很多其它种类的深色叶菜，包括羽衣甘蓝，甘蓝和莴苣。

　　Flax Seeds

　　亚麻籽

　　Sitting down to a big bowl of flax seeds probably doesn't sound optimal, but used as an addition to smoothies, cereals, and whole grain products, flax seeds give a boost to the fiber content of any meal and contain phytonutrients in the form of lignans. They also help to regulate bowel movements and are a natural source of the omega 3 fatty acids, which have a host of known health benefits.
